Mental Homework
Players should study the following and come prepared to answer questions:
Penalty box is also known as the "18 yard box".
The ball is not out of bounds until it totally crosses a line; and the ball must totally cross the line between the goal posts to score.
In our division, there will be 8 players on the field at a time (1 goalkeeper and 7 field players).
Our games will be 60 minutes long, with two halves made up of 30 minutes each.
We use #4 sized balls.
We will be playing with off sides rules.
Throw-ins will be taken by the "defense" always, unless coach specifies differently. Throw-ins are taken from the sideline (touchline). Ball has to go all the way over head, with both feet on the ground.
Goal kicks are taken from anywhere on the goalbox line, normally the corners of the goalbox.
Kickoffs are taken from the center circle, on the halfway line. The ball must go forward of the line, touching another player, on a kickoff.
You keep playing until the referee blows the whistle!
